* The original or a certified copy of the antique vehicle's title.
* Proof of insurance.
* A $22.50 title fee.
* A $5 antique vehicle registration fee.
* If the vehicle is over 25 years old, a $150 one-time antique vehicle registration fee.
2. Visit a Florida county tax collector's office. You can find the nearest tax collector's office by visiting the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) website.
3. Present your documents and pay the required fees. The tax collector will review your documents and verify that you meet the requirements for antique vehicle registration. Once everything is in order, you will be issued a new title and registration for your antique vehicle.
4. Affix the antique vehicle registration decal to your license plate. The registration decal must be placed in the lower left-hand corner of your license plate.
5. Keep your antique vehicle registration current. Antique vehicle registrations are valid for one year and must be renewed annually. You can renew your registration online, by mail, or in person at a Florida county tax collector's office.
